Description Justus Metzler 2014-10-27 15:06:00 UTC 
Dear Community,

Ive got several problems, we´d edited the defconfig file with menuconfig.
During compiling the kernel, ive got the following messages.

Id uploaded my steps and a Error-log to pastebin

Without knowing what you changed during the menuconfig phase, there's not much we
can say. i.e. this is a straight forward missing build dependency.

-----------------

Also, can this be reproduced using linux-yocto and a reference BSP ? If this is only triggered
using the imx kernel, then the maintainers of that layer should be contacted.
Comment 2 Justus Metzler 2014-10-27 17:33:45 UTC 
Wed changed nothing, thats the interesting part.
We use a Sabrelite Board from Boundary as reference Board.
Wed do not have edited the .config or defconfig, we just typed menuconfig.
The defconfig and .config is the same as before.
My log is made during doing the steps showed in the log, wed have a fresh clone of the daisy branche.
Comment 3 Bruce Ashfield 2014-10-27 17:40:51 UTC 
There's nothing that I can see wrong with kernel.bbclass, have you checked with the 
maintainers of the BSP ?

Without being able to reproduce this, or have it happen with a linux-yocto reference BSP,
there's little I can do at the moment.
Comment 4 Bruce Ashfield 2014-11-13 17:53:09 UTC 
setting as needinfo, since we need to hear from the maintainers of the referenced recipe.
Comment 5 Justus Metzler 2014-12-08 19:34:47 UTC 
Fixed in Dizzy
